Hello!

A couple of years ago we posted a blog about the ‘top 10’ reasons people fail their driving tests. Since then, the practical test has changed to include following directions from a sat nav and testing different manoeuvres.

Well, summer’s here at last. The cuckoos of spring are just a distant memory, the clouds have rolled back and it’s time for some fun in the sun. 

Have you ever got stuck in a YouTube wormhole, just watching endless car crash compilation videos?   

OK people, this is your opportunity to help us shape the future! 

The Stationery Office (TSO) is the official publishing partner of the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA). And we’re looking for road users to take part in some research.

Greetings loyal readers!

Hi, my name’s Charlotte and I’m 22 years old. I am at the start of my driving journey, with my 6^th lesson coming up this weekend. After I graduated from university last year, I felt it was time for me to learn to drive, and so I had my first lesson in February. I’m enjoying the experience so far and cannot wait for the freedoms and new experiences that driving will bring me.

Regular visitors to this blog will know that we love to get you thinking about how you can become a better, safer driver. So, this week we’re going to give you lots of top advice about motorcyclists.

We all see and respond to road signs every day, but how good is your road signs knowledge?
